DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

The technical solutions in embodiments of the invention will be described below clearly and completely in reference to the accompanying drawings of embodiments of the invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are merely some but not all of the embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by a person skilled in the art based on the embodiments in the invention without creative labor fall within the protection scope of the invention.

Please refer to FIGS. 1 to 7 collectively. Preferred embodiments of the invention provide a kick scooter comprising a deck assembly 1 and a handlebar assembly 2 separable from the deck assembly 1. When the two assemblies are separated, the handlebar assembly 2 can cooperate with the deck assembly 1 by insertion at different angles, achieving a switch between a deployed position and a folded position.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the handlebar assembly 2 comprises a transversal handlebar 21 and a stand column 22 one end of which is connected to the transversal handlebar 21 and the other end is provided with a connecting post 23. The axial direction of the connecting post 23 forms an obtuse angle with the axial direction of the stand column 22. There is a plug hole 130 on the deck assembly 1 that cooperates with the connecting post 23 by insertion. The axial direction of the plug hole 130 forms a sharp angle with the direction of extension of the deck assembly 1. It can be understood that, in an inserted position, the plug hole 130 is provided to be concentric with the connecting post 23. When the connecting post 23 is located outside the plug hole 130, the handlebar assembly 2 is separated from the deck assembly 1. After the handlebar assembly 2 rotates 180° around the axial direction of the connecting post 23, the connecting post 23 can be inserted into the plug hole 130 at a changed angle, so as to switch the handlebar assembly 2 between a deployed position and a folded position.

Since the insertion connection between the handlebar assembly 2 and the deck assembly 1 is achieved by the cooperation between the plug hole 130 and the connecting post 23, the handlebar assembly 2 is separable from the deck assembly 1, and after the separation, the handlebar assembly 2 is rotated so as to cooperate with the deck assembly 1 at a different angle. The axial direction of the connecting post 23 forms an obtuse angle with the axial direction of the stand column 22, and the axial direction of the plug hole 130 forms a sharp angle with the direction of extension of the deck assembly 1. After the connecting post 23 rotates 180°, one can change the state of the stand column 22, making the stand column 22 switch between being away from the deck assembly 1 and being close to the deck assembly 1, so as to enable the handlebar assembly 2 to switch between a deployed position and a folded position.

Since the handlebar assembly 2 of the kick scooter is separable from the deck assembly 1, after the handlebar assembly 2 is removed, the deck assembly 1 can be used separately to slide as a skateboard that is convenient to use.

Preferably, the obtuse angle formed by the axial direction of the connecting post 23 with the axial direction of the stand column 22 is 120° to 150°, and the sharp angle formed by the axial direction of the plug hole 130 with the direction of extension of the deck assembly 1 is 30° to 60°, so that the stand column 22 changes to relatively proper positions in the folded and deployed states, and is convenient to fold and to use. More particularly, in the present embodiment, the obtuse angle formed by the axial direction of the connecting post 23 with the axial direction of the stand column 22 is 135°, and sharp angle formed by the axial direction of the plug hole 130 with the direction of extension of the deck assembly 1 is 45°. In the folded state, the axial direction of the stand column 22 can be parallel to or nearly parallel to the direction of extension of the deck assembly 1, i.e., parallel to the upper surface of the deck assembly 1, so as to facilitate storage and carriage. In the deployed state, the axial direction of the stand column 22 is perpendicular to or nearly perpendicular to the direction of extension of the deck assembly 1, i.e., perpendicular to the upper surface of the deck assembly 1, so as to facilitate utilization.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, two locking slots 131 that are provided, respectively, on the two sides of the plug hole 130, are arranged at an insertion opening of the plug hole 130. The connecting post 23 is provided with locking protrusions 231. When the connecting post 23 is inserted into the plug hole 130, the locking protrusion 231 is located inside a locking slot 131. By means of the cooperation between the locking protrusion 231 and the locking slot 131, the connecting post 23 is inserted into the plug hole 130 at a predetermined angle, and the rotation of the connecting post 23 inside the plug hole 130 can be limited. In the present embodiment, there is one locking protrusion 231. When the connecting post 23 is inserted into the plug hole 130 at different angles, the locking protrusion 231 cooperates, respectively, with the two locking slots 131. Here, in another modes of realization, there can be two locking protrusions 231 that cooperate, respectively, with the two locking slots 131.

The connecting post 23, the stand column 22, and the transversal handlebar 21 all have a tube-shaped general shape, so as to reduce the overall weight of the kick scooter. The connecting post 23 is provided with a connecting tube 24 inside which an end of the stand column 22 is inserted so as to increase the strength of the connection between the connecting post 23 and the stand column 22. A reinforcing rib 232 is provided at the junction between the connecting tube 24 and the connecting post 23. The reinforcing rib 232 is connected with the locking protrusion 231, so as to increase structural strength. Here, in other modes of realization, the connecting post 23 and the stand column 22 can also be formed integrally.

As shown in FIG. 1, the deck assembly 1 comprises a deck 13, front wheels 11, and a rear wheel 12. The deck 13 has an oblong shape. The front wheels 11 and the rear wheel 12 are provided, respectively, at the two ends of the deck 13. It can be understood that the above-mentioned direction of extension of the deck assembly 1 is the direction of alignment of the front and rear wheels 12. There are two front wheels 11 and one rear wheel 12, making the kick scooter a three-wheel kick scooter.

To facilitate the provision of the plug hole 130, the deck assembly 1 is provided with a plug tube 15 (as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7). The plug hole 130 is formed inside the plug tube 15. More particularly, the plug tube 15 is located at the front end of the deck 13, i.e., where the front wheels 11 are provided.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the kick scooter further comprises locking mechanisms 3 for locking the connecting post 23 inside the plug hole 130. In the present embodiment, there are two locking mechanisms 3 that are provided on the connecting post 23, and the two locking mechanisms 3 are symmetrically provided, respectively, on the two sides of the connecting post 23, with the axial direction of the connecting post 23 being the symmetric axis. The locking mechanisms 3 comprise a locking pin 31 and an elastic element 32. The locking pins 31 are provided on the connecting post 23 in such a manner that they are slidable along the radial direction of the connecting post 23. The elastic elements 32 are connected to the locking pins 31 for providing an elastic force to make the locking pins 31 protrude from the outer surface of the connecting post 23.

The wall of the plug hole 130 is provided with a locking hole 133. When the connecting post 23 is inserted into the plug hole 130, one of the locking pins 31 is inside the locking hole 133, so that the connecting post 23 is locked inside the plug hole 130. When the connecting post 23 is inserted into the plug hole 130 at different angles, the locking hole 133 cooperates, respectively, with the two locking pins 31. That is to say, in the folded position, only one locking pin 31 is inside the locking hole 133, while in the deployed position, only the other locking pin 31 is inside the locking hole 133.

Here, in other modes of realization, there can be one locking mechanism 3 and two locking holes 133 that are provided symmetrically, respectively, on two side walls of the plug hole 130 with the axial direction of the plug hole 130 being the symmetrical axis. When the connecting post 23 is inserted into the plug hole 130 at different angles, the locking pin 31 cooperates, respectively, with the two locking holes 133. Alternatively, there are two locking mechanism 3 and two locking holes 133.

Further, in the present embodiment, the elastic elements 32 of the two locking mechanisms 3 are formed integrally. More particularly, the two elastic elements 32 are connected to form a V shape. The free ends of the two arms of the V are connected, respectively, with the two locking pins 31, so as to provide an elastic force, respectively, to the two locking pins 31. In other modes of realization, the two elastic elements 32 are connected to form a U shape. The free ends of the two arms of the U are connected, respectively, with the two locking pins 31, so as to provide an elastic force, respectively, to the two locking pins 31. Alternatively, the two elastic elements 32 can also be connected to form a compression spring, the two ends of which are connected, respectively, with the two locking pins 31, so as to provide an elastic force to the two locking pins 31. In further modes of realization, the elastic elements 32 of the two locking mechanisms 3 can also be separate, in the form of a compression spring, flat spring, etc., and provide an elastic force to the locking pins 31 respectively in an independent manner.

In the present embodiment, the deck assembly 1 is further provided with an unlocking mechanism 4 for ejecting the locking pin 31 out of the locking hole 133. The unlocking mechanism 4 comprises an unlocking element 41 that is connected to the deck assembly 1 in such a manner that it is slidable along the radial direction of the plug hole 130, and extends to the locking hole 133. When the unlocking element 41 slides towards the plug hole 130, the unlocking element 41 abuts against the locking pin 31, and makes the locking pin 31 move out of the locking hole 133. At this moment, the connecting post 23 can be taken out of the plug hole 130.

Further, the unlocking mechanism 4 further comprises an unlocking spring 42 that is provided around the unlocking element 41 for providing an elastic force causing the unlocking element 41 to move away from the locking pin 31, so as to make the unlocking element 41 automatically recover after unlocking.

In the above-described mode of realization, the locking mechanisms 3 are provided on the connecting post 23. In other modes of realization, as shown in FIG. 8, locking mechanisms 3 can also be provided at the plug hole 130 of the deck assembly 1. The locking holes 133 are provided on the connecting post 23. A sliding slot 135 can be provided on the wall of the plug hole 130. The locking pin 31 of the locking mechanism 3 is provided in the sliding slot 135 in such a manner that it is slidable along the radial direction of the plug hole 130, and one end of the locking pin 31 extends to the plug hole 130. The elastic element 32 is connected to the locking pin 31 for providing an elastic force to cause one end of the locking pin 31 to be located inside the locking hole 133. The other end of the locking pin 31 extends to the outer side of the deck assembly 1. A user is able to move one end of the locking pin 31 outside the locking hole 133 by simply pulling the other end of the locking pin 31 from the outer side of the deck assembly 1, thus enabling the connecting post 23 to be removed from the plug hole 130. To facilitate the pulling of the locking pin 31, the other end of the locking pin 31 can be provided with a structure such as a pull ring.

In the above-described mode of realization, the locking mechanism 3 consists of a locking pin 31 and an elastic element 32. It cooperates with the locking holes 133 to achieve the positioning and cooperation between the connecting post 23 and the plug hole 130. In other modes of realization, as shown in FIG. 9, the locking mechanism 3 can also be a locking screw, and the deck assembly 1 is provided with a threaded hole extending to the plug hole 130. The nut of the locking screw is located at the outer surface of the deck assembly 1. By rotating the locking screw to make its end move into the plug hole 130 and abut against the connecting post 23, the locking of the connecting post 23 inside the plug hole 130 can be achieved. Alternatively, the locking mechanism 3 can also be a hoop provided around the outer side of the plug tube 15. When the connecting post 23 is inserted inside the plug hole 130 of the plug tube 15, to lock the connecting post 23 inside the plug hole 130, one needs only to lock the hoop.

In the above-described modes of realization, the locking of the connecting post 23 inside the plug hole 130 is achieved through the locking mechanism 3. In other modes of realization, the locking can be achieved by the cooperation between the connecting post 23 and the plug hole 130, without using the locking mechanism 3.

Additionally, the handlebar assembly 2, at the lower end thereof, and the deck assembly 1, at the bottom of the plug hole 130, can comprise respective complementary shapes that are capable to engage each other for blocking the pivoting of the handlebar assembly 2 with respect to the plug hole 130, and thus stabilize the engagement of the handlebar assembly with the deck assembly and namely limit the forces applied on the pins 31 or screw 3. Such complementary shapes can consist of a transverse rib or of diametrically arranged blocks at the bottom of the plug hole 130, on which the handlebar assembly 2 engages by means of a transverse groove that can be seen on FIG. 4, or such as a central prismatic block at the bottom of the plug hole 130, on which the handlebar assembly 2 engages by means of a fitting corresponding cavity, as seen on FIGS. 6-9.

What has been disclosed above are merely preferred embodiments of the invention, and obviously cannot be used to limit the scope of the claims of the invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications made based on the claims of the invention fall within the scope covered by the invention.
